Wheel X7: Taupe and Tan Shimmers
1. Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Sleek Frost (3 coats) [I'm never sure with these if the finish is part of the name or not; this might just be called Sleek, with the Frost part provided for reference; it's actually a rather subtle shimmer for something called Frost]
2. Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle Polished Pearl (3) [ah, Nailgrowth Miracle line, we hardly knew ye]
3. Borghese Almondine (3) [I remember when this color was the "it" polish of the moment]
4. Rescue Beauty Lounge Jane (2)
5. Rimmel Play Fast Street wear (2) [another dead line]
6. Barielle Belly Dance (2)
7. China Glaze Fast Track (3)
8. Essence Colour & Go Irreplaceable (2) [I like this better on the wheel than on my nails]
9. BB Couture for Men John Smith (2)
10. Essie Tartufo (2) [I have no recollection of this polish at all; usually I see the names and go "oh yeah, I remember that"]
11. Sally Hansen Salon Divinity (2) [they did a lot of good colors in this line]
12. Cult Nails Cruisin' Nude (2)
13. Maybelline Express Finish Dreamy Taupe (2)
14. Maybelline Express Finish Galaxy (2)
15. Maybelline Express Finish Matte Galaxy (2) [so much better in the matte version]
16. OPI You're a Doll (3)
17. Butter London Yummy Mummy (2)
18. Mattese Elite Je T'Adore (2)
19. Ulta Professional Strapless (2)
20. Borghese Soave Nude (2)
Bottles 1 through 5:
6 through 9:
10 through 15:
16 through 20:
For some reason, most of these detail shots came out too dark, and I haven't had much luck getting them right via editing, so use them to see the finish, not so much the color. The wheel photo is better for that.
Destash notes: I could let go of 1 if not for liking these old Sally Hansen bottles. 2 through 5 are must keeps. 6 could go, as could 8 and 10 and 14 and 20.
I wear such shades rarely, but I think I'd pick up a few :)
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or is this wheel kind of relaxing? lol Very nice selection!
